Abstract:
Vibrant Mattering explores the artistic practice of Gail Priest and Thomas Burless working as the Institute for Non-Empirical Results. Their collaborative ventures develop contexts to test the capacities of cause and effect via the interactions of sounds and materials. Based on historical research, they then use intuitive experimentation to explore how things work (or not). This presentation focuses on their latest project, the exhibition Five Self-Vibrating Regions of Intensities which explores sound as energy and vibration.
